Partners Relief Relief and Development (PRD) has invited me to return to Iraq for six months in 2019 to work with the Yazidi women and children who are living in refugee tents. Many of these women have been captured by ISIS, now escaped and in need of love, friendship and the good news of Jesus Christ.

These women and children have been suffering these past years when their mountain was overtaken by ISIS. PRD is seeking to start up creative businesses for these women to do while they wait to move on from the camps.

Before I could go, I had to find a person to go with me. So one of my tasks while being home in the States, was to find and train another woman who will join me. Her name is Elisa Wolcatt from Omaha, Nebraska. Elisa is a professional artist with ample ministry experience of working with such ministries as Iris Global School of Arts, and Village of Hope Ministries. Together we make a great team. It is a blessing to be able to share the ministry and work of helping to reach these women with God’s great love. Presently our target date is early March.

Please join me on this adventure of bringing Christ to the lost and hurting people in Iraq. We will need prayers for wisdom, protection, and financial provision for everything that is needed to help these people who have suffered so much hardship in this life.

God is doing amazing things in the Middle East and I am thankful that you get to be a part in loving and helping women and children of the Middle East!
